ZUK Aukstaitijos pienas - agricultural co-operative in Lithuania.

The main mission of the agricultural co-operative Aukstaitijos pienas is to promote its members’ aspirations to get the largest possible revenue from the milk produced after it is processed into ecologically pure high-quality dairy products for individual consumption and industrial utilisation. The products are sold in Lithuanian and foreign markets. The co-operatives main activities are dairying, rearing thoroughbred heifers and cattle breeding.

Aukstaitijos pienas was founded on 4 October 1996. The co-operative has over 3000 members. It is the first and largest dairy co-operative in the country, marking the beginning of a new stage in the co-operative movement in Lithuania.

The co-operative is developing as a consistent part of dairying in the Aukstaitija region, supplementing the developing market-orientated agriculture in Lithuania.
